Authorised Representative

An Authorised Representative (AR) can be of service for manufacturers based outside of the EU and the UK who want to sell their product on the EU and UK market. An Authorised Representative acts on behalf of the manufacturer and ensures that the products being sold on the market comply with the applicable product compliance legislations, meaning they provide you with Authorised Representative services. This concerns products that are sold either directly, via e-commerce (online), or through a fulfilment service provider.

Challenges an Authorised Representative can solve for you

The responsibilities of manufacturers that are based within the EU and/or UK are straightforward, but for manufacturers based outside of the EU and/or UK who sell onto these markets, it can be difficult to know which economic operator within their supply chain is responsible for what. These responsibilities include: verifying the CE/UKCA marking, ensuring the availability of technical documentation for national surveillance authorities, handling requests from said authorities, cooperating with them etc. However, having an Authorised Representative can help ensure that this process is easy for you.

How AR experts can help

An Authorised Representative will play a part in ensuring a safe and legal production and trading process. The manufacturer will outsource specific tasks to the Authorised Representative, meaning that they take over some of the manufacturer’s responsibilities too. The aforementioned challenges will no longer be of concern to the manufacturer with AR Experts as your AR: the Authorised Representative will review the technical file and applicable marking, ensure the availability of technical documentation for national surveillance authorities, handle requests from said authorities and cooperate with them.
